There are two ways to purchase AirHelp Plus:
Annual cover: This covers a period of 12 months, and applies to any flight disruptions you may experience starting from the date of purchase. During this time, you are given access to all AirHelp claiming services.
You can buy an AirHelp Plus Annual Membership online here.
The AirHelp Plus Annual cover will also be offered to you if you have already put forward a successful claim with us, giving you easy access to our services for the coming year. If you do choose to purchase AirHelp Plus, the price will simply be deducted from your compensation amount.
After purchasing the Annual Membership, we will process any claims you submit for disruptions encountered during the 12 month period free of charge.
Per-booking plan: Our per-booking plan gives you access to all AirHelp claiming services covering a specific booking for which you purchased AirHelp Plus. After purchasing AirHelp Plus, we will process any claims on the specific booking free of charge.
After purchasing the Per-Booking Plan, we will process any claims you submit for the specific booking free of charge.
Simply log into the AirHelp Plus area and follow the prompts to start a claim. Your claim will automatically be processed without any fees.
AirHelp Plus applies to your future flight disruptions, after the date of purchase. If your flight has already been disrupted, or you have already started a claim, AirHelp Plus will not apply. Instead, you will be charged our standard fees should we successfully obtain compensation on your behalf.
There is one exception: if we assess your previous flight as a good candidate for a Goodwill Claim (that’s a claim which isn’t covered by the law, but where the airline may offer a voucher as a gesture of goodwill). In this case, you may purchase an annual AirHelp Plus membership, which will apply to your future flights, as well as a Goodwill Claim for that specific previous flight.
AirHelp Plus covers a minimum period of 12 months. You can cancel at any point during the year, and AirHelp Plus will not renew when your current 12-month period ends.
To cancel from the AirHelp Plus area, choose “Manage Membership”, then select “Cancel Membership”. You can also cancel your membership by emailing [email protected].
Cancellations within the first 14 days.
If you change your mind about joining AirHelp Plus, you can cancel within the first 14 days for a full refund. Just send an email to [email protected]. Please note that we cannot refund AirHelp Plus if you already traveled on flights covered by AirHelp Plus within those 14 days.
You will be charged the full amount when you buy AirHelp Plus, and the service will cover all your flights for the next 12 months with no additional fees.
AirHelp Plus renews automatically, so you will next be charged in a year’s time. However, you can cancel at any point during the year, and AirHelp Plus will not renew when your 12-month period ends.
AirHelp Plus renews automatically each year, unless you cancel your subscription.
In most cases, payment will be taken 12 months from the date of purchase, so that your membership continues uninterrupted.
If you bought AirHelp Plus as part of our “buy now, activate later” offer, your membership will renew each year, 12 months after the departure date of your first flight.
Yes, AirHelp Plus is available worldwide and supports all air passengers no matter where they are flying, or where they call home.
We make use of a wide range of international air passenger rights laws including Europe’s Regulation EC 261, the Montreal Convention, and ANAC 400 in Brazil, to ensure we offer all travelers the support and compensation assistance they deserve.
AirHelp Plus members have a dedicated area for claims. Please log into the AirHelp Plus area and follow prompts to start a claim.
If you need any further assistance, you can always contact our customer support via the Live Chat feature.
AirHelp Plus gives you access to our flight claim services free of charge, but whether you are entitled to compensation is dependent on the circumstances of your particular disruption and the applicable international and local laws.
Ensure that you submit your claim via the AirHelp Plus area, so that we can consider all relevant air passenger laws to try to get you the compensation you deserve.
Remember that even if your flight isn’t eligible for monetary compensation, you still have access to our other services, such as advice and expertise via Live Chat.
Please note that AirHelp Plus is not a travel insurance plan. AirHelp Plus provides you with complimentary access to advice, and our flight claim services in the case of flight disruption.
If you have purchased AirHelp Plus and your flight was disrupted (e.g. delayed or canceled) you may be entitled to money. Please log into the AirHelp Plus area and follow prompts to start a claim.
To obtain a refund for a flight ticket, we recommend you first talk directly to your travel agent or try to claim back the ticket price through your credit card. In our experience that is the fastest way to receive a flight refund.
If you have tried these options already with no success, we can offer AirHelp Plus members assistance with ticket refunds. We can submit a request for a refund directly with the airline on your behalf, but response times from the airline are longer.
